“Sweet Euphoria mine is the heart you own
Lost the grace of the hands that harmed you
In the daze of a thousand yawns
Lost my love, as it is I’m truly gone
In your morning I will sleep
Fire on an open palm
Death for Jesus and plastic armies
Wouldn’t bring me back again
Sweet as ether eyes I’m blind to them
And in your waking hour
Time wilts like flowers
Sleeping on land-mine pillows
Tired angels save my love for the lasting one
Sweet Euphoria mine is the heart you stole
Touched and broken are the things you love
Using stars to light your candles
Warms my face but I can’t remember yours
Gone are your dandelions falling like mine
Falling like daydream mangos
Diving swallows
Save my love
Save my love
Save my love for the lasting one.
Sweet euphoria.”

you are selling the original for $200?
it is quite a small work, but the qulity makes it saleable. i have written some advice for making decent money for work of quality and can find it for you if you like.
but you could easily aquire 3 times that ANYWHERE and probably guarantee $850 fairly quickly in a gallery with a decent turnover.
oh man now i want an apple one. turnover i mean.
Derek Shockey replied
:D…
I WOULD LOVE SOME ADVICE!!!
i am planning on making a move to Gold Coast soon… IT WOULD BE A TREMENDOUS HELP TO KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT HOW IT WORKS OUT THERE!!! (i realize your in Perth not really sure how close that is… i know you’re a bit closer than i… :) ....)
what would be considered fair prices… good galleries… good areas … anything really… it would all be a huge help!

i showed there once though it is one the opposite side of country. perth is the most isolated city in the world.
there is a lot of money in australia, though there is a purported slump the economy has been the fastest growing in the world for ten years or so… the place is a horrifically gauche tourist trap… i will tell you more when i have finished rewatching lord of the rings !
Derek Shockey replied
looking forward to hearing more… man
